I have a 2002 dodge caravan I over heated and died on me we changed the thermostat,plugs and wires,fuel pump and filter,coil pack.And when we when to start it it cranked right up but when we turned it off it will not crank now it sounds like it wants to but wont turn over oh and when we test drove it th temp gage when up and down fast.I also put the key in the ing and turned it without cranking it dinged 5 times then dinged 1 time then the check eng light blinked 10 times and the oil light was also on also I could hear water I think bubbling.If anyone has any ideas Please help I am all out and I need my car I have 4 kids and live 7 mil from the closest store so I need my car.Unimpressed

If you overheated it probably have warped the head.. Possibility coolant has leaking into your cylinders after you shut it off and hydro locked the engine. Pull the plugs out and cranks it over and see if coolant comes out. If coolant comes out the head needs to come off and be inspected/machined/ by a machine shop or replaced.
